Patented June 25, 1912.

Serial No. 620,045.

To all whom it may concern:

end of the roll of paper, the disk being ad- Be it known that 1, Jon-NW. MCCRARY, justable in order that the-same may accom- United States,residing'at Ethan, in the county of Davison and State of South Dakota,haveinvented a new and useful Papering-Machine, of which the followingis a specification.

This invention relates to improvements in paper. hanging machines.

The object of the invention is to provide a machine of this characterwhich will efiectually apply the paper to the wall, said machine beingprovided with means for severing the paper.

A further object reservoir with'means for restricting a longitudinalopening formed in the same, the length of said opening being regulatedaccording to the width of the paper used.

With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as thedescription proceeds, the invention resides in the combination andarrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafterdescribed and claimed, it being understood that changes in the preciseembodiment of invention'herein disclosed can be made within the scope ofwhat is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.

In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of thisspecification,-Figure 1. .is a top plan view of the machine; Fig. 2 aside elevation; Fig. 3 a transverse section of the paste reservoir; andFig. 4 a detail view of said reservoir.

In the drawings, 10 and 11 designate the longitudinal bars of asupporting frame by the transverse handle supporting bar 12, a handle 13being secured centrally to said transverse bar. A roll supporting shaft14. has trunnions bars 10 and 11, said shaft being provid adjacent oneof its ends with a disk 17 which is stationary, a spring pressed brake17' which is supported by 12 being arranged to contact with said disk, amovable disk 19 being adjustablymounted adjacent the other end of saidshaft, said disk 19 being formed with a boss 20 through which a securingpin 21 passes, said pin enterin apertures 22 which extend transverse ythrough the shaft 14. This shaft 152 arranged to support the roll ofwall paper, the adjustable disk 19 being moved on the shaft 14 andarranged to bear against one is to provide a paste by the paste 35, thepaste the transverse bar from the shaft 12 and at the approximatelongitudinal center of the harslO and 11 is arranged a paste applyingroller 23, under which the paper 'which is designated as A passes. Aplurality of segments 25' and 25 are secured to either of the members10.and 11, said segments being formed with arcuate slots. A plurality ofsupporting arms 26 and 27 are pivotally supported by the shaft 23, onwhich the paste applying roller is positioned, said supporting armsreceiving the trunnions 28 and 29 which are carried reservoir 30. Thearms 26 and 27 are provided with adjusting -screws3l which extend withinthe slots formed in the segments 25 said supporting arms being capableof arcuate movement in order that the reservoir 30 may be adjusted, thetightening screws 31 holding the arms 26 in their adjusted position. Thepaper applying roller 32 is supported by the end portions of the members10and 11, the roller 23 and said roller 32 being provided with sprockets33 and 34, on which is arranged the chain applying roller being rotatedas the paper applying roller is moved along the wall. Thus, serves thepurpose of a paper feeding roller.- The paper, after it leaves the pasteap plying roller, is conducted beneath the transverse bar 35 which issubstantially triangular .in cross section and vided 'with a knife edge36. Arrange immediately below said member 35 is a cutting device 37,said. cutting device being pivotally supported by the members 10 and 11and being provided ad acent one of its ends with an arm 38' whichisadapted to swing the device 37 on its pivot 37 when actuated by thewire or cable 39, which cable is passed over a plurality of pulleys 40and 4:1, in order that the same may be conveniently manipulated by theoperator, the cable passing along the handle member 13. Itwill be seenthat when it is desired to sever the paper, the arm 38 is actuatedthrough the cable 39, the pivoted cutting device being swung upward,severing the paper, the paper being held in position to be severe by thetransverse bar 35.

which is prothe paste applying roller also nally disposed aperture 43which, when the a frame, a roll holder supported by said frame, a pastesupplying roller, a cylindrical reservoir arranged above said pastesupplying roller, said reservoir being formed with a longitudinal slotand a member arranged to gradually decrease the length of said slot.

2. In a machine for applying wall paper, a frame, a roll holdersupported by said frame, apaste supplying roller, a cylindriealreservoir arranged above said paste supplying. .roller, said reservoirbeing It will be seen from the foregoing that a device of this charactermay be used to effectually place the wall paper on the Wall, means beingprovided for applying paste to the same together with means forefi'ectually severing the paper, the structure being such that it may bemanufactured economically and conveniently handled.

The reservoir 30 which is positioned above the paste applying roller 23consists of a hollow cylindrical member provided with a suitableaperture 42 through which the receptacle is filled,,said receptaclebeing further provided with the longitudiprovided with a plurality ofelongated slots, and a' shutter arranged within and concentric to saidreservoir, said shutter being formed with a tapered edge portion, andpins carried by said shutter and extending through the elongated slotsformed in the reseri oir. v 1 p 3. n a machine or applyin wall paper, aframe, a roll holder suppo i ted by said receptacle is mounted on thesupporting arms, lies directly above the paste applying roller. Arrangedwithin the receptacle 30 and conforming in shape to the inner wall ofsaid receptacle is a shutter or closure 44, which shutter is formed withthe tapering edge 45 which'is moved forward and back Ward across theaperture '43 to restrict the same, the shutter being moved by means ofthe adjusting screws 46 which work in the slots 47 arranged in thereceptacle.

It will be noted that the roll holding shaft is providedwith adjustablemeans in order that the same may adapt itself to rolls of paper whichvary in width. Therefore-, from, the foregoing it will be noted that theopening in the paste reservoir may be regulated to supply paste to rollswhich vary in frame, a paste supplying roller, a cylindri cal reservoirarranged above said paste supplying roller, said reservoir being formedwith a longitudinal slot and a'member arranged within the reservoir forgradually decreasing the length of saidslot.

In testimony that I claim the foregoingas my own, 'I have hereto aflixedmy signature in thepresence of two witnesses.
